Christ's temple-that bought your brain,
with all its power to think and plan.
When the spear cleft Christ's side-that
bought your heart, with all its power to
love, and repent, and pray. Oh, sinner,
come back.
If man is in no pain, if he is pros
pered, if he is well, and he asks you to
come, you take your time and you say ::
81 can't come now. I'll come after
awhile. There is no haste" But if he
is in want and trouble you say: f'I must
go right away. l must go now" To-day
Jesus stretches out before you two
wounded hands, and be begsyoU TO come
Go and you live. Stay away and you die.
Oh, that to Him who bought US we might
give all our time and all our prayers and
all our successes, l would we could
think of nothing else, that we could d.
nothing else but come to Christ. He is
SO fair, He is SO loving, He is so sympa-
thizing, He is so good, wish we could
put our arms around His neck and say:
Thine, Lord, will l be forever" Oh,
that to-day you would begin to love Him,
Would that | could take this audience
and wreathe it around the heart of my
Lord Jesus Christ.

Those in the counties adjoining or near

sistsnce from the people of Fort Worth
and largely from the cattlemen who look
for market for their stock when the
work of Strengthening begins. This will
not be long delayed, and when the work

Il has been noticed that deaf mutes ere
rarely affected with seasickness. The
semi-circular canals of the internal ear
are probably absent or negative in func-
ton in these people. These canals are
not organs of hearing, but of equilibra-
ton, and when disturbed give rise to YER
tigo ard nausea. DIR. William Jones, of
Cambridge, Mass, claims that counter
irritant applied to the skin behind the
ear will relieve seasickness. The coun-
ter-irritant may be q blister, or simply
rubbing the part until the skin is slightly
excoriated.

ICE GORGES.
Lyons, Mich a Sea of Ice-Fort Deposit,
Md, in Danger.
AT LYONS,

LYONS, MICH, Feb. 10-Lyons is a
sea OF ice. Grand river rose during the
night about four feet, and an ice gorge
formed Just below the city. The whole
business part of the town is under water
Great damage has been sustained, and the
loss will reach into the thousands. Sew
eral families have been driven out of their
dwellings, and others took to the upper
stories. The ice gorge covers an area of
about 400 acres, and it is estimated
twenty feet thick in places. Should the
Lansing ice reach here before the gorge
breaks it will probably leave the river
bed and carry many houses down the
river. All mails are shut of from the
north and west.
Boats manned with three or four oars
men each are making strenuous efforts to
save property. Some buildings have
been swept down the stream and others
must surely go. The current is cutting
the embankment of the Water Power
Company and rushing in torrents
through the factories. Those who
can are anchoring the build
ings to keep them from being swept
down the stream. 1t is estimated that
100 acres are covered with the ice gorge.
The village Is swarming with people from
the country, who come to witness the
flood. News from up the river shows
that the worst is not yet. Should
the Lansing ice, which is expected here
tonight, reach US before this gorge gives
way, there is no limiting the damage that
must be done.

Although the Plaza Bolivar is open to
everybody, the lower classes never enter
il during concert hours, but content them
selves with listening to the music outside
the railing. Altogether have rarely met
with a more docile, well behaved people
than the lower classes of Venezuelanos.
They are poor and ignorant, but at the
same time honest and kind hearted. Rob-
berries are hardly known in Caracas. The
doors are left open during the day, and
even at night they seem to be closed only
for formality's sake, but not for protec-
ton. In my numerous lonely walks
through the streets at night, not only in
Caracas, but in other towns, never met
a disorderly or drunken person. After IL
o'clock at night everything is quiet. The
few tramways crossing the city stop
shortly after 10 o'clock, and at midnight
the streets are absolutely deserted, re-
minding me often of similar streets with
houses in city far away, at the foot of

prided himself upon his thorough
knowledge of physiognomy. In hiring
"a servant or a clerk he scorned to look at
any written references that might be Off

would say Il will read that, and there

most embarrassing stare. lie adopted
the same principle in regard to all who
came to him for pecuniary aid. lie gave
or withheld his aims according 10 his
judgment. One day respectable clergy
man, whose character and reputation
were unimpeachable, called upon him for
contribution 10 some missionary enter
prise. My friend looked him over care
fully and according to his custom, walk
ed around hIm 80 as to have a good view
of the back of his head. Finally he sat
down and electrified his clerical visitor
by saying quietly: You are an impos.

Tbs Word MYuIe .

The name given by the ancient Goths
and Saxons, says Chambers. in his Book
of Days" to the festival of the winter
solstice was julie or yule, the latter term
forming to the p esent day the designa-
tion in the Scottish dialect of Christmas,
and preserved also 10 the phrase Of the
'.yule log" Perhaps the ett molegy of
no term has excited greater discussion
among the aDtiquariars. Classicists
claim it TO be derived from the Latin word
jubllum, meaning rejoicing, or from its
being festival in honor of Julias Caesar.
1t is explained rs being Synonymous with
OL or oeE,. which denotes in the Gothic
tongue feast-hence the word ale. The
much mere probable derivation. however,
is from the Gothic giuE or hull, the root
Of the wcrd, vince because il was the
turning point of the year. This is con-
firned from the fact that in the oldIime
almanacs wheel is the eInbelm of the
yule tide season.

So met we, dear, as bodiless spirits greet;
Met and were blind, foreseeing not the smart

From eyes which look what lips may not repeat.

About CIGAR smokers.

Some cigar smokers invariably use a
cigar holder. A big retail cigar dealer
says that smokers who use holders gener-
ally smoke cheap cigar. There are ex-
ceptions, of course, but the rule holds
good generally, he maintains, even among
men Of wealth. Old smokers who stick a
cigar between their teeth ard like to chew
at it, as a rule buy brands that cost froIn
ten cents up to fifty cents apiece.-Nev
